Simple mod that I hadn't thought of but like is the rj45 connector, much better than me having a cable coming out of the console, be copying this, rest of the car is stunning too

As Steve mentioned, he wanted a fast road car that he wouldn't have to wring the neck of to get the best out of it.
There is still plenty left in reserve if he ever gets bored of it, but I suspect that won't be any time soon

I'd say at least another 50bhp with a bit more boost, but as he's happy, we're happy !

Trust me Ian its fast enough, any more and I think it would be difficult to utilise that on the road properly and at the moment my engine is under no stress at 1.9 bar on 14mm head studs. Injector duty was just over 50%.
